international relations - Bush-spot suggests Kerry – Li Ka Shing link
A TV-spot on the election website of President George W. Bush links his Democratic opponent John Kerry with the ‘special interests’ of Hong Kong tycoon Li Ka shing.
In a less than subtle TV-spot, called ‘Unprincipled’ an imaginary female voter surfs the internet looking – rather successfully – for the ‘special interests’ John Kerry has with the large corporations. In a list of ‘ties’ the women repeats verbally, she also mentions “Kai-shing”.
Li Ka Shing is Hong Kong’s most successful and richest business man, key to many companies in telecommunication, logistics and manufacturing.
In a summery of the New York Times on Saturday it says: ‘The answer flashes on the screen: $640,000. “Ooh, for what?’’ she says, typing out ‘‘Paybacks?’’ and then reading aloud from the screen, she says, ‘‘Millions from executives at HMO’s, telecoms, drug companies.’’ She add, "Ka-Ching!"
She can only come to one damning conclusion: Mr. Kerry, she says, is ‘‘Unprincipled.’’
